Effect given to the recommendations of the Committee and the Governing Body

1. 130. The Committee last examined this case at its meeting in November 2001 when it once again recalled the need to amend sections 98, 99, 100, 106 and 107 of the Labour Relations Act so as to ensure that compulsory arbitration may only be imposed with respect to essential services and in cases of acute national crisis [see 326th Report, paras. 171-173].
2. 131. In a communication dated 9 January 2002, the Government states that the Labour Amendment Bill is currently before Parliament and that labour and employers had an opportunity to present their positions on its contents in December 2001.
3. 132. The Committee takes due note of the Government’s indication and requests it to transmit a copy of the Bill so that the Committee may examine its conformity with freedom of association principles and its previous recommendation concerning the Labour Relations Act.
